Default Forward Reverse switch

Does anyone have a source for this switch? It's on a Melex 512E.
So far in my search have not found anything even looks like this.

It's the same as the 70s and 80s Ezgo Marathon carts.
What is wrong with yours



This should work. From one of our sponsors

Thank you. That helps tremendously to know they are compatible with EZGO.
The top post got hot enough to melt some insulation on the cable, and the post itself is loose, so I figure it will go bad soon.
Might have been that way for awhile, but headed home when batteries were low the other day, and that was when I noticed it was getting hot.

Low voltage operation will result in high amperage draw. High amperage draw creates unwanted heat. So that little ride cost you an F&R switch. Watch the battery gauge... and if you don't have one - get one

New Forward Reverse switch came today.
Works good. Doesn't go into reverse very well.
Warning horn works good, just doesn't want to back up every time.
I'm thinking the micro switch might need a little adjustment.
